Big Time Summary
MPAA Rating: PG
Director: Chris Blum
Genres: Music
Rating:
You've seen gravelly-voice actor/singer Tom_Waits in meaty dramatic roles in such films as The_Fisher_King (1989), At Play in the Fields of the Lord (1991) and Bram_Stoker's_Dracula (1992). And you've heard his compositions on the soundtracks of films like Divine_Madness (1980), Wolfen (1981) and Let's_Get_Lost (1988). The 1988 documentary Big Time combines the vocal and visual Tom Waits, endeavoring to juxtapose glimpses of Waits in concert with staged dramatic scenes, allegedly inspired by his songs. Waits himself assumes several wacky characterizations during the fictional sequences. The "real" scenes in Big Time were filmed during a Waits concert at Los Angeles' Wiltern Theatre.
